NEWARK, NJ –June 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
- Rafael Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: RFL) today announced the last patient has completed the final 96-week study visit in the pivotal Phase
3 TransportNPC™ study evaluating Trappsol®
Cyclo™ for the treatment of Niemann-Pick Disease Type C (NPC). With 94 patients studied across
27 sites in 13 countries, the TransportNPC™ study is the most comprehensive, controlled pivotal study regarding patient size, global
footprint, duration and clinical outcomes of an investigational therapy for NPC. Additionally, 10 patients were enrolled in a single-arm
sub-study per the adopted Pediatric Investigational Plan (PIP) treating newborns to 3 years of age. Topline data from the main
study cohort is expected to be known and announced in the second half of calendar 2026.
Data presented
at WORLDSymposium 2026 from the single arm pediatric sub-study in patients ages zero to three, continues to highlight the potential
for Trappsol® Cyclo™ as a therapeutic option in NPC with 80% of the sub-study patients’ CGI scores showing
improvements or remaining stable with no serious adverse events considered to be related to the study drug.
“Reaching
the conclusion of the pivotal Phase 3 TransportNPC™ trial is a monumental achievement that belongs, first and foremost, to the patients
and families, advocacy organizations, and physicians who stood at the heart of this global effort. Together, we have advanced the clinical
understanding of NPC, as well as the lived experience of this devastating disease, as we work to deliver a potentially life changing treatment
option for a community with significant unmet need,” said Joshua Fine, Chief Operating Officer of Rafael Holdings. “We would
also like to recognize the FDA for their long-term continued collaboration, engagement and guidance in advancing this program.”
“Having
already completed our pre-NDA meeting with the FDA, we believe we have a clear, and expedited path forward reflective of the urgency
and unmet need in NPC and expect to submit our NDA in the second half of 2026. NPC represents a high-unmet-need market, positioning
Rafael Holdings to potentially unlock substantial, long-term value for our shareholders as we work toward transitioning Rafael
Holdings into a commercial-stage biotechnology company,” said Howard Jonas, Chief Executive Officer, Executive Chairman
and Chairman of the Board of Rafael Holdings.
